Original Wikitext content:
14/13, the 2/3-tone or trienthrid (one-third third) interval is a somewhat exotic 13-limit interval which is almost exactly 1/3 of a major third of 5/4. The small comma (5/4)/(14/13)^3 = 10985/10976 is tempered out in such notable divisions as 46, 84, 94, 103, 111, 121, 130, 224, 270, 494 and 764, leading to a variety of temperaments in which three trienthirds make up a major third. The trienthird was a favorite interval of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avicenna|Avicenna]] (Ibn Sina) for his scale constructions, and may be considered a smaller size of neutral second (a second between major and minor.)
